The fiber of towels will harden after being used for a long time, which is not only uncomfortable to use, but also the “culprit” of facial wrinkles and spots. Japanese beauty and health network “Brander” explained that this was caused by excessive friction.
The hardening of towels is mainly caused by the combination of free calcium and magnesium ions in the water with soap and their adhesion to towels. In addition, long-term dirt residue is also one of the reasons for its hardening. After washing your face, wiping with a dry and hard towel will strongly stimulate your skin. If you rub it back and forth, it will cause greater damage, fine lines, melanin, and pigmentation.
It is recommended that towels be changed at least every three months, and more small square towels can be prepared at home. When wiping your face, fold the towel and gently tap your face to remove moisture. If the towel becomes hard, you can wash it with a softener or soak it in vinegar for 30 minutes to achieve the softening effect. It should be noted that in order to prolong the service life of towels and ensure skin hygiene, they should be cleaned after each use and dried in a cool and ventilated place.
In addition, when washing your face, you should not rub too much. This will not make your skin cleaner, but will irritate your skin more because of excessive friction. Especially now many facial cleansers contain granule abrasives, which is more irritating. When washing, you should take an appropriate amount of cleaning product, add some warm water to rub foam in the palm of your hand, apply it to your face, gently rub it with your fingertips, and then rinse it off.
